Pretty much all of them, and that is more a description at that point than a probable profile, right?
a probable profile is what will let the mcveigh or unabomber slip by.

cant take that risk.

Social Democrats and Democratic Socialists. Not Communist... there is another party for that.
Funny because Hitler considered them one and the same. They are both very left of center. One more so than the other that's all.

It looks like it was a deranged anti-government extremist. Apparently he was not happy with the social-dem party and PM in Norway.

Gee,

I guess it would suck to blame a certain group ..........

Unless they admit responsibility.

Islamic extremist claims responsibility for Oslo bombing / News / The Foreigner — Norwegian News in English.



Tough Luck.

It's Muslims again.

What exactly do you mean by that? The Labor Party had nothing to do with Hitler, at all.

This has been largely debunked, though it's still a possibility, most experts say this does not look like an attack from religious extremists.

In addition to that, they've arrested a man who is a ethnic Norwegian 32 year old. He's been seen at both locations.

You do realize that the Islamics are liars and use any kind of exposure they can to get their names out in the public.

I think it's really disgusting if the criminal is homegrown. It's worse when it's an inside job than an outsider. Because when it comes from the inside you don't know who to trust.

Remember Tim McVeigh and the D.C. Shooter that happened in the USA.

What this attack has done, just as it did in the USA will make Norway more aware of social/political dissidents in their own nation.

What the hell?

We are both (assumedly) Americans but I don't trust anyone who has this warped of a world view.

All we know is what the media is spewing out. 24 hour rule in play now to sift through the mess and see what really happened.

There was a middle eastern/Islamic & FBI sting connection in the OKC bombing and John Lee Malvo was a radical Islamacist. Please don't go comparing what happened today in Oslo to a failed FBI operation or a lone "sniper" in the USA.

Why are people so ready to accuse before the facts are in? Seems awfully thoughtless if you think back to what your feelings and concerns were on 9/11 before we knew what was happening doesn't it?

Give the folks in Oslo some time to breath, time to bury their dead, time to comfort those greiving, time to heal their wounded, and time to investigate and arrest additional suspects. For heaven's sake! Some of the posts on this thread sicken me to the core.
